Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of semiconductor equipment, in particular to a wafer etching device. Background Art
[0002] In the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices, it is often necessary to etch the silicon dioxide layer of the wafer to form a specific structure. VHF (Vapor Hydrofluoric Acid) vapor phase etching technology can provide a relatively safe and efficient etching method. By injecting vaporized hydrogen fluoride vapor into the wafer placed in the process chamber, the hydrogen fluoride vapor reacts with the silicon dioxide layer on the wafer surface to produce silicon tetrafluoride gas and water, thereby achieving the etching of silicon dioxide.
[0003] Existing process chambers for vapor-phase etching of wafers typically have only one opening on the sidewall of the chamber for injecting hydrogen fluoride vapor. Therefore, the hydrogen fluoride concentration in the process chamber is higher near the opening, and the concentration decreases as the distance from the opening increases. This high hydrogen fluoride concentration has a significant impact on the wafer etching rate: the higher the hydrogen fluoride concentration, the faster the wafer etching rate. This results in uneven etching rates across the wafer surface, poor etching uniformity, and reduced product yield. Utility Model Content

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 , this embodiment provides a wafer etching device 100, including an etching chamber 110, a first air inlet pipe 120 and an air outlet pipe 130; a bracket 140 is provided in the etching chamber 110, the bracket 140 includes a placement layer and an exhaust plate 142 spaced apart from the placement layer, the placement layer includes a plurality of spaced apart clamping plates 141, and wafers can be placed on the plurality of clamping plates 141 and clamped between the clamping plates 141 and the exhaust plate 142; a plurality of circles of exhaust pipes 1421 are concentrically arranged on the exhaust plate 142, and a plurality of exhaust ports 1422 are evenly spaced apart on the exhaust pipes 1421 and arranged toward the wafer; the first air inlet pipe 120 is connected to the exhaust pipe 1421 for injecting etching gas into the exhaust plate 142; the air outlet pipe 130 is connected to the etching chamber 110.
[0031] Specifically, if Figure 1As shown, the wafer etching apparatus 100 includes an etching chamber 110 having a closed accommodating cavity in the middle of the etching chamber 110. A support 140 is disposed in the accommodating cavity. The support 140 has a placement layer for placing wafers. The placement layer includes a plurality of spaced apart card plates 141. It should be noted that the present application does not impose any restrictions on the number of card plates 141. The minimum number of card plates 141 is two, so as to support opposite sides of the wafer respectively. When there are multiple placement layers, the multiple placement layers can be stacked at intervals to improve space utilization within the etching chamber 110.
[0032] The support 140 further includes an exhaust plate 142, which is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the placement layer. The exhaust plate 142 and the placement layer are stacked at intervals to reserve space for placing wafers. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the exhaust plate 142 is provided with multiple circles of exhaust pipes 1421. Multiple exhaust ports 1422 are evenly spaced and positioned toward the wafers. Etching gas entering the exhaust pipes 1421 from the first air inlet pipe 120 can be ejected through the exhaust ports 1422. When the number of circles of exhaust pipes 1421 exceeds two, the distance between adjacent exhaust pipes 1421 is preferably equal, ensuring uniform distribution of the multiple circles of exhaust pipes 1421. This arrangement ensures a uniform concentration of etching gas across the wafer, thereby improving the uniformity of the etching rate across the wafer surface and the product yield.
[0033] After the etching gas reacts with the silicon dioxide layer on the surface of the wafer to etch the wafer, the gas in the etching chamber 110 is discharged through the gas outlet pipe 130 .
[0034] It should be noted that, in one embodiment of the present application, first, Figure 4 As shown, in order to make the concentration of the etching gas that the wafer contacts as uniform as possible, the orthographic projection outline of the exhaust plate 142 along the first direction a covers the orthographic projection outline of the card plate 141 along the first direction a, so as to ensure that when the wafer is mounted on the card plate 141 of the placement layer, it can be exposed to the etching gas at all locations, wherein the first direction a is the setting direction of the exhaust plate 142 and the placement layer.
[0035] Second, if Figure 1As shown, in order to further increase the rate at which the gas in the etching chamber 110 is discharged from the gas outlet pipe 130, an exhaust plate 111 is provided on the inner wall of the etching chamber 110, and one end of the gas outlet pipe 130 is connected to the exhaust plate 111. Preferably, the exhaust plates 111 are provided on all four inner walls of the etching chamber 110. The exhaust plates 111 have evenly distributed exhaust holes, which can ensure uniform gas extraction throughout the etching chamber 110 to ensure consistency and uniformity in wafer etching. At the same time, the provision of the exhaust plates 111 can also control the direction of the airflow in the etching chamber 110 and the flow rate of the gas.
[0036] Third, if Figure 2 As shown, in order to further increase the rate at which the gas in the etching chamber 110 is discharged through the gas outlet pipe 130, a vacuum pump 170 is connected to one end of the gas outlet pipe 130 away from the etching chamber 110. Preferably, the wafer etching apparatus 100 can be provided with both an exhaust plate 111 and a vacuum pump 170. Through the coordinated operation of the exhaust plate 111 and the vacuum pump 170, the gas in the process chamber can be quickly and effectively extracted to help maintain the required low pressure or high vacuum state.
[0037] Fourth, if Figure 2 As shown, in order to ensure uniform gas extraction throughout the etching chamber 110 and thus ensure consistency and uniformity in wafer etching, a plurality of gas outlet pipes 130 are provided, and the plurality of gas outlet pipes 130 are evenly distributed around the periphery of the etching chamber 110. Preferably, four gas outlet pipes 130 are provided, and the four gas outlet pipes 130 are respectively connected to the four sidewalls of the etching chamber 110. Of course, the present application does not impose any limitation on the specific number of gas outlet pipes 130. The number of gas outlet pipes 130 may also be eight, with two gas outlet pipes 130 connected to each sidewall of the etching chamber 110, as long as the gas in the etching chamber 110 can be uniformly extracted.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the four inner walls of the wafer etching apparatus 100 are each provided with an exhaust plate 111, and four exhaust pipes 130 are also provided. One end of the exhaust pipe 130 is connected to the exhaust plate 111, and the other end is connected to a vacuum pump 170. The vacuum pump 170 can be started to exhaust the gas in the etching chamber 110 through the exhaust plate 111 and the exhaust pipe 130.
[0039] The wafer etching device 100 provided in the present application includes an etching chamber 110, a first air inlet pipe 120 and an air outlet pipe 130; a bracket 140 is provided in the etching chamber 110, the bracket 140 includes a placement layer and an exhaust plate 142 spaced apart from the placement layer, the placement layer includes a plurality of card plates 141 spaced apart, the wafer can be placed on the plurality of card plates 141 and clamped between the card plates 141 and the exhaust plate 142 to support the wafer; a plurality of exhaust pipes 1421 are concentrically arranged on the exhaust plate 142, and a plurality of exhaust ports 1422 are evenly spaced apart on the exhaust pipe 1421 and arranged toward the wafer; the first air inlet pipe 120 is connected to the exhaust pipe 1421, and is used to inject etching gas into the exhaust plate 142 to ensure that the concentration of the etching gas contacted by various parts of the wafer is uniform, so that the etching rate of various parts of the wafer is equal; the air outlet pipe 130 is connected to the etching chamber 110 to discharge the gas in the etching chamber 110. The wafer etching apparatus 100 can make the etching gas concentration uniform throughout the chamber, thereby making the etching rate equal at all locations on the wafer surface, thereby improving etching uniformity and product yield.
[0040] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1 As shown, the wafer etching device 100 also includes a gas diversion component 150, the first air inlet pipe 120 is connected to the inlet of the gas diversion component 150, the gas diversion component 150 includes multiple outlets, and the outlets are respectively connected to the second air inlet pipe 160, and the second air inlet pipe 160 is connected to the exhaust pipe 1421 of the exhaust plate 142.
[0041] Specifically, in order to make the concentration of etching gas contacted by each part of the wafer as uniform as possible, a plurality of exhaust pipes 1421 are provided on the exhaust plate 111. Therefore, in order to ensure that the exhaust rate of each exhaust pipe 1421 is equal, each exhaust pipe 1421 is connected to the first air inlet pipe 120 through a pipe. In order to ensure that the amount of gas entering each exhaust pipe 1421 from the first air inlet pipe 120 is the same, the wafer etching device 100 further includes a gas diversion component 150, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first air inlet pipe 120 is connected to the inlet of the gas diversion assembly 150, and the gas diversion assembly 150 also includes multiple outlets. Each outlet is connected to a second air inlet pipe 160, which is connected to the exhaust pipe 1421 of the exhaust plate 142. The etching gas entering the gas diversion assembly 150 through the first air inlet pipe 120 can be evenly discharged into the corresponding exhaust pipe 1421 through the second air inlet pipe 160 after being diverted by the gas diversion assembly 150.
[0042] Alternatively, as Figure 3As shown, exhaust duct 1421 includes a first duct 1421a and a second duct 1421b. First duct 1421a is arranged circumferentially, with multiple exhaust ports 1422 evenly spaced throughout. Second duct 1421b is connected to second air inlet pipe 160. Gas entering second duct 1421b from second air inlet pipe 160 enters first duct 1421a in an orderly fashion and is evenly discharged. To facilitate communication between second duct 1421b and second air inlet pipe 160, one end of second duct 1421b is connected to first duct 1421a, while the other end extends to the edge of exhaust plate 142 for external communication.
[0043] In one embodiment of the present application, two circles of exhaust pipes 1421 are concentrically arranged on the exhaust plate 142, and there is a preset interval between the two circles of exhaust pipes 1421 to ensure that all parts of the wafer surface can be evenly exposed to the etching gas. In order to facilitate the installation of the second pipe 1421b of the inner circle exhaust pipe 1421, the first pipe 1421a of the outer circle exhaust pipe 1421 needs to reserve space for the second pipe 1421b. Optionally, as Figure 3 As shown, the first pipe 1421a of the outer exhaust pipe 1421 includes two spaced-apart sub-pipes 143. Sub-pipes 143 are semicircular and together form a circular structure to ensure that all areas of the wafer surface are evenly exposed to the etching gas. The two sub-pipes 143 are respectively connected to the two second pipes 1421b to ensure that the etching gas can be evenly ejected from both sub-channels.
[0044] Of course, in addition to the aforementioned configuration of the first pipe 1421a located in the outer ring including two spaced-apart sub-pipes 143, the first pipe 1421a located in the outer ring may also be provided with an opening, so that the first pipe 1421a located in the outer ring has an incompletely enclosed circular structure (not shown in the figure), thereby reserving space for the second pipe 1421b. The second channel of the exhaust pipe 1421 located in the inner ring can extend from the opening into the inner ring to communicate with the first pipe 1421a located in the inner ring.
[0045] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 As shown, the bracket 140 includes a support rod 144, multiple placement layers and multiple exhaust plates 142.

[0046] Specifically, if Figure 4As shown, the support 140 includes support rods 144, multiple exhaust plates 142, and multiple placement layers. The support rods 144 can be fixedly connected to the clamping plates 141 of the placement layers to provide support and stability for the clamping plates 141. The support rods 144 are hollow structures, one end of which is connected to the second air inlet pipe, and the etching gas can enter the support rods 144 through the second air inlet pipe 160.
[0047] The support rod 144 is provided with a plurality of openings (not shown in the figure) at intervals along the stacking direction of the plurality of placement layers. The number and arrangement positions of the openings correspond to the plurality of exhaust plates 142 one by one. Figure 4 As shown, the second pipe 1421b of the exhaust pipe 1421 of the exhaust plate 142 is connected to the interior of the support rod 144 through the opening. Through such an arrangement, each layer of the exhaust plate 142 can be fed with etching gas, thereby improving etching efficiency.
[0048] Optionally, to ensure the stability of the support 140 and to ensure that the etching gas is discharged uniformly and quickly from each layer of the exhaust plate 142, a plurality of support rods 144 are provided, and the plurality of support rods 144 are evenly spaced around the periphery of the exhaust plate 142. Preferably, the number of support rods 144 is consistent with the number of second pipes 1421b of the exhaust pipe 1421 of the exhaust plate 142.
